4.0 out of 5 stars
A modern revision of the genus; a major taxonomic work.,
By breck@mtwest.net (Utah) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gasterias of South Africa: A New Revision of a Major Succulent Group (Hardcover)
This is a beautiful book, almost a coffee table type, yet it is also a scholarly work which involved enormous amounts of botanical field work. It's one deficiency in my opinion is a lack of adequate illustrative photographs. The color plates are impressive and of art quality but do not show the amount of variation within the genus nor what some species really look like. Otherwise a commendable effort.

Mr. van Jaarsveld has done all succulent lovers a great service by doing the botanical study and work necessary to present this modern taxonomic understanding of Gasterias.
